What mistake did the hunter make this time? We cannotfind fault with his tracking and trailing; he seems to havedone a good job on both scores. His mistake was that ofstrategy rather than tactics. A better hunter would havereasoned that the deer were disturbed if not alerted, andsince the deer had been in the orchard since before dawn,they probably had their paunches filled and were about readyto begin ambling back to the bedding grounds. The goodhunter would have gone back the way he came—down OtterRun—circled the deer and taken a stand on the trail he knewthey would use. By so doing, he probably would have had agood shot. |
